Justin Theroux gushes about Jennifer Aniston amid Brangelina divorce

Justin Theroux has revealed the secret to his marriage to Jennifer Aniston amid her ex-husband Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s divorce.

Without a hint of smugness, the Zoolander director told Entertainment Tonight: ‘We appreciate each other’s sense of humour, we respect each other and we get along. I know it sounds simple, but it’s true!’

His comments are perfectly timed since Jennifer has been hounded by the media recently to reveal her views on the breakdown of her ex-husband’s marriage. Jennifer wed Brad in 2000 but they sensationally split in 2005 and he moved on with the Tomb Raider star months later.

Meanwhile, Justin, 45, and Jen, 47, met on the set of Wanderlust in 2012 and tied the knot in a secret ceremony in August 2015. Fans of the couple are eagre to see them on screen again.

Justin told E! News: ‘I mean, we would love to, of course. You know, it’s that thing of I have been working for the last three years on the TV show (Leftovers) which has prevented me from working on anything else.’

The Leftovers star also revealed which of his wife’s movies are his favourite, and said: ‘Oh god, what’s my favourite Jen movie?… I think Cake. Not just because it was her most recent one. I love her in Good Girl, and her comedies are fabulous. Loved her in Wanderlust… she’s always so present and good.’
